Musee des Arts et Metiers, Paris

It's worth a visit. Perhaps less extensive than it was decades ago, but it is still a nice collection and is reasonably well organized. The English language on the labels of the items are limited so putting things into context if you don't speak English is hard. It's possible that they have audio you can get from them in English, I don't know.

Lots of lost potential! It could have been such a fun museum but instead it is very boring. We had audio guides but explanations were too technical and dull. Would be amazing to see some of these machines working to understand them better. Tactile screens are often not working. I think this museum could be really fascinating but needs a serious update in terms of modernization of exhibits. The place itself is really stunning
